   SAND MOUNTAIN TALES   
      
   By Ellarie Martin   
      
        Speaking  of  weirdos,  all  the excitement about  the  UFOs   
   reminded  me.   About  eight  years ago when  we  were  still  in   
   Florida,  James and a man he worked with on the ranch were coming   
   into  the  ranch from the hard road and looked up and saw a  huge   
   round  'saucer' just sitting up over the ranch.   They sat  there   
   and looked at it for a long time before it took off.  And shortly   
   after  that  one  evening,  I looked up and saw  a  bright  light   
   streaking  across the sky in a zigzag pattern that was  not  like   
   any star or airplane I'd ever seen.   
        About  34 years ago,  my sister lived in Pensacola just  off   
   the air base where her husband was stationed.   She said she woke   
   up  one night and saw a bright light that lit up the whole  area.   
   Going  to the window,  she looked up in the sky over the base and   
   saw a cigar shaped UFO with the lights going around it and  stood   
   and  watched  it for a long time before going back to  bed.   The   
   next  night  the  same  thing happened and  the  third  night  it   
   happened  again.   Only  that time she woke her  husband  up  and   
   showed it to him.   He called the officer of the day and reported   
   it  to  him and was told there was nothing there to be  concerned   
   with, and was later told it was just his imagination.   
        Silly?   Yes, but our government has consistently refused to   
   acknowledge the presence of these strange vehicles.   
        I am so interested that I keep hoping one of them will  come   
   and ask me to visit with them in their machine.  I'd go, buddy!!!   
        I am sorry people want to shoot them down and hurt them.  It   
   is the typical reaction to something not understood.
